Yes! Sorry I wasn’t clear about that in my initial post!

Have you considered a summer internship? Would be perfecting timing if you can land one now.

You could also take the next 2-3 months off to enjoy yourself if it works for you financially?

I personally think starting a new corporate jobs for only a few months is a waste of time and could look bad on you when recruiting in the near future.

Ah yes, I wasn’t clear about that. My bad. I assumed most people worked during school lol.

Thanks! It’ll be a lot to handle.
